Confocal Microscopes

Nikon C2+ Confocal

Nikon’s next generation point scanning confocal microscope system offers faster scanning, powerful new features and vastly expanded spectral imaging capabilities.

Built on a reputation of incredible stability coupled with superior optical technologies, the C2+ with its host of functions and various analytical capabilities is the perfect tool for a new microscope, or as a new accessory to a Nikon imaging system. Now fully controlled by NIS-Elements imaging software, the system includes four channel confocalfluorescence imaging, and vastly expanded spectral capabilities with the ability to capture and unmix data acquired at any channel resolution across the entire detector bandwidth.

Nikon A1 HD25/A1R HD25Confocal

A confocal microscope that captures images with a 25 mm field of view, nearly twice the area of conventional point scanners.

Capturing images of large samples such as tissues, organs and live model organisms requires both extending the detectable area of cellular responses and increasing image capture speed. The A1 HD25/A1R HD25 confocal microscope has the largest field of view (25 mm) in its field, enabling users to expand the limits of scientific research.

Nikon CSU-W1 Confocal

Ultra‐Wide Field of View

Field of view of CSU-W1 is nearly 4 times that of the CSU-X1, making it ideal for large area scanning applications and low magnification imaging of large specimens. This large field of view is a perfect match for large format sensors.

Enhanced Signal‐to‐Noise Ratio

A new pinhole design significantly reduces pinhole crosstalk, which is particularly important with thicker specimens.

Flexible Configurations

CSU-W1 can be configured with one or two pinhole-sizes (50um, 25um, or both disks) to cover a wider range of objective magnifications. The 25um pinhole size allows imaging of lower magnifications and larger fields of view than ever before, for confocal imaging of larger specimens

Efficient Light Path

Nikon CSU-X1 SoRa Confocal

Optical Pixel Reassignment is ideal for fast imaging

Super-resolution images are acquired optically, on any sample, without special preparations or computation. This allows image collection to be limited only by the sample’s signal-to-noise ratio and the exposure time of the detector. Video rate or faster super resolution imaging is possible
